She stood there, leaning on the edge of my chariot while letting her hair fly with the wind. She seemed to be there for a long time already, as a tinge of boredom appeared on her face.
"How long since you finished?" I looked outside, and the world was quiet and peaceful and empty.
The people who filled this place went to the capital to take part in the work there.
"Almost six hours… Or was it ten? I dunno," she shrugged, "now we can work over the next batch."
"Next batch?" I thought before checking my messages. The nymph lady already sent me a message of her readiness to deliver the next batch. She also asked about the wood.
From her question, I got the feeling that she spoke with one of the experts she sent over to me. Or else why would she ask in such enthusiasm about the amount I could deliver and start mentioning price tags?
She didn't even ask if I got enough high grade woods or not!
